Well it's broken for sure if php -v dumps .. and if php cli is broken
most likely the module is too, which may well explain apache crashing ..

Sorry, I'm on digests here which can take half a day unless you cc me,
so I hope you've made some progress by now .. no, nothing obvious, but:

I'd be trying to separate these two problems: save configs, comment out
all of the php stuff in httpd.conf and get your upgraded apache up and
running properly first, then refetch / reinstall / reconfigure php5?

Good luck, Ian
